Oh dear, struggling again. Sky is the least of your worries. Good luck financing yourselves.

The irony. A statement like that from a country that borrows billions internationally every year adding to the increasing debt.

A momentary collapse of my cognitive functions has robbed me of my disbelief. Back online shortly...

Banks in London will flock to Edinburgh to pay taxes north of the border.

EU membership and loads of money. Non zero sum game really.

yeah because they have always moved to Scotland before.

They are not even asking for another referendum, they are just asking for permission to have one.

Procedure is something the Tories would like to do without. HoL being an example.

This is just a ploy to get people to watch her grind he grievance engine again.

[scooterscot]

Not quite sure how they are going to fund it though. I suppose its the Bank of England to the rescue.

Independence itself is one hell of a gamble; for example, you've got a large Sky office at Livingstone and HMRC at Cumbernauld;
